Overnight Price: $1.86

Citi rates AMP as Sell (5) -

Citi reduces FY20 estimates for earnings per share by -6%. The broker allows for an accelerated margin squeeze for wealth management as the company consolidates its master trusts and moves all customers onto a new simplified offering.

Some of this margin squeeze is also likely to flow into FY21, the broker suspects. Although some may be attracted to the apparent value on offer, Citi suspects it is still a long road ahead for AMP.

Sell/High Risk rating maintained. Target is $1.70.

Target price is $1.70 Current Price is $1.86 Difference: minus $0.16 (current price is over target).
If AMP meets the Citi target it will return approximately minus 9% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Current consensus price target is $1.79, suggesting downside of -3.7% (ex-dividends)

The company's fiscal year ends in December.

Credit Suisse rates AMP as Outperform (1) -

September quarter flows were broadly in line with expectations. Credit Suisse notes wealth inflows posted the strongest growth since the second quarter of FY17.

AMP expects corporate super outflows of -$1.4bn over the next 12 months. Credit Suisse points to near-term earnings risk around the decline in assets under management as well as revenue margin pressure.

However, investors appear to be allowing for this risk. Outperform rating and $2 target maintained.

Target price is $2.00 Current Price is $1.86 Difference: $0.14
If AMP meets the Credit Suisse target it will return approximately 8% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Macquarie rates AMP as Neutral (3) -

AMP Capital saw net outflows in the Sep Q but Macquarie notes the pipeline is encouraging, while ongoing net outflows in Wealth Management remain a concern. Bank loan growth is growing just below system.

All up the broker suggests a turnaround is now underway but it's going to be a long term story, and a near term re-rating is thus unlikely. Neutral retained, target falls to $1.75 from $1.80.

Target price is $1.75 Current Price is $1.86 Difference: minus $0.11 (current price is over target).
If AMP meets the Macquarie target it will return approximately minus 6% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Morgans rates AMP as Hold (3) -

Ord Minnett rates AMP as Hold (3) -

AMP Capital assets under management increased to $202.2bn while bank deposits increase by $600m. Hold rating and $1.80 target maintained.

UBS rates AMP as Neutral (3) -

UBS suspects outflows are unlikely to subside quickly. As AMP narrows its aligned adviser footprint, the broker continues to envisage elevated risks to retail flows, in addition to downgraded guidance for corporate super flows.

Although the strategy to reshape the advice & platform offerings and cut costs will assist over time, the net benefit is considered some way off. UBS maintains a Neutral rating and $1.75 target.

Target price is $1.75 Current Price is $1.86 Difference: minus $0.11 (current price is over target).
If AMP meets the UBS target it will return approximately minus 6% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Overnight Price: $1.40

Citi rates API as Downgrade to Neutral from Buy (3) -

FY19 results were difficult to reconcile, in Citi's view. Benefits accrued from a low tax rate. Reported underlying earnings (EBIT) of $94m were -1% below guidance. However this included the Sigma dividend income and a $17m fair value benefit from Clearskin Care.

Credit Suisse rates API as Underperform (5) -

Underlying net profit was up 3.2% in FY19 although Credit Suisse notes earnings quality was absent, with multiple one-off accounting adjustments making for a difficult comparison.

The broker considers the short-term outlook challenging, as PBS revenues are expected to stay under pressure and there is greater competition in the wholesale distribution market.

Underperform rating maintained. Target is reduced to $1.40 from $1.45.

Overnight Price: $2.77

UBS rates AVN as Neutral (3) -

UBS observes the portfolio is delivering solid net operating income growth when compared with peers and this reflects lower existing base rents, annual fixed increases and positive re-leasing spreads.

The macro environment has improved but the broker notes this is yet to flow through to better household goods retail sales. Neutral rating maintained. Target is raised to $2.70 from $2.20.

Target price is $2.70 Current Price is $2.77 Difference: minus $0.07 (current price is over target).
If AVN meets the UBS target it will return approximately minus 3% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Overnight Price: $34.26

Credit Suisse rates CIM as Upgrade to Neutral from Underperform (3) -

The company has reaffirmed net profit guidance of $790-840m for 2019. Credit Suisse upgrades forecast to the lower end of guidance and raises the target to $36 from $35.  Rating is upgraded to Neutral from Underperform.

Operating cash flow was down -29% in the September quarter while operating earnings conversion was 52% vs 54% in the prior quarter.

Credit Suisse suspects this was because of a reversal in the build up of payables and a higher proportion of alliance-style contracts, as well as completion and delays for some large infrastructure projects.

Morgan Stanley observes the domestic performance of Crown was broadly in line with expectations in the first quarter but VIP is softer than expected and the focus remains on resolving regulatory requirements.

Macquarie rates FMG as Outperform (1) -

A solid Sep Q for Fortescue featured lower cash costs than expected, thanks to lower capex, while shipments and realised prices met expectation. Increased cash flow has further reduced debt while the shift towards higher grade ore is improving pricing, the broker notes.

Were Macquarie to input current spot iron ore prices into its valuation model, earnings forecast would rise by 6% and 80% in FY20-21.

Outperform retained, target rises to $10.30 from $10.10.

Morgan Stanley rates FMG as Underweight (5) -

September quarter production and shipments were broadly in line with Morgan Stanley's expectations. Revenue realisation was softer, which raises some downside risk to the broker's December quarter forecasts.

This risk assumption is based on an improving iron ore supply and a key reason for the broker's Underweight rating.

Capital expenditure at Eliwana has increased for FY20 to a range of US$700-800m while expenditure at Iron Bridge has been delayed, with the FY20 range lowered to US$300-400m. Target is $7.85. Industry view is Attractive.

Morgans rates FMG as Reduce (5) -

Morgans observes the share price has started to materially outperform the iron ore price, which is unsustainable. The broker notes a healthy first quarter, with shipments and costs in line with expectations.

FY20 estimates for earnings per share are upgraded to account for lower costs and a higher first-half iron ore price. Reduce rating maintained. Target is raised to $6.73 from $6.38.

Target price is $6.73 Current Price is $8.84 Difference: minus $2.11 (current price is over target).

The stock remains one of the sector preferences because of its attractive valuation and reliable operating performance. Buy rating maintained. Target rises to $10.00 from $9.40.

Capital expenditure and timing of developments at Eliwana and Iron Bridge remain on track. September quarter shipments were in line with UBS estimates, and comparatively lower because of seasonal maintenance activity.

Macquarie rates GXY as Underperform (5) -

Galaxy's Sep Q production was solid but shipments fell short despite plenty of inventory. Given global lithium oversupply, Galaxy will now go the way of graphite producer Syrah Resources ((SYR)) and cut back production at Mt Cattlin by -25% until prices improve.

The company will now strive for "value over volume" by moving forward with optimisation projects.

The cut-back suggests to the broker a weakening market outlook. Underperform retained, target falls to 80c from $1.10.

Macquarie rates JBH as Neutral (3) -

The sales trends evident in JB Hi-Fi's Sep Q update exceeded Macquarie's expectations, with solid growth in A&NZ and ongoing improvement for The Good Guys. The sales outlook from here is largely unchanged, with high hopes for new games and game consoles ahead of Christmas.

The improving trajectory leads the broker to seriously upgrade its target, to $36.80 from $30.10, but given the stock has run up 41% already in FY20 while the ASX200 has trod water, Neutral retained.

The company has reaffirmed FY20 revenue guidance which implies 2.2% growth. Revenue grew 3.1% in the first quarter so Morgan Stanley suspects guidance is conservative at this stage.

Morgans rates JBH as Hold (3) -

The company noted an acceleration in same-store sales growth across all three divisions in the first quarter. FY20 sales guidance of $7.25bn was reiterated. Morgans suspects this is increasingly conservative but the performance over Christmas will be key.

The broker makes negligible changes to forecasts and maintains a Hold rating. Target is raised to $35.34 from $29.55, as a PE methodology is now incorporated in the blended valuation.

Morgans rates NCM as Hold (3) -

Newcrest Mining produced 512,000 ounces of gold in the September quarter. FY20 production guidance is unchanged and now includes Red Chris. Morgans notes many plants were shut down across operations in the September quarter, which reduced production output and subsequently increased costs.

Performance is expected to improve for the remainder of the year, but the lower end of full-year guidance is now likely to be met, in the broker's view, because of the slow start. Hold maintained. Target is reduced to $33.14 from $33.71.

Target price is $33.14 Current Price is $32.40 Difference: $0.74
If NCM meets the Morgans target it will return approximately 2% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Ord Minnett rates NCM as Lighten (4) -

September quarter production of 512,000 ounces is tracking below FY20 guidance. Ord Minnett notes maintenance and lower grades were to blame.

Plant throughput should rebound across the sites and the broker anticipates achieving the lower end of FY20 production guidance and the high end for costs.

The broker's focus remains on how the company can replace some of the production, given Cadia is expected to decline over the next five years and Gosowong will be offloaded in the same timeframe.

Lighten maintained. Target is reduced to $27 from $32.

This stock is not covered in-house by Ord Minnett. Instead, the broker whitelabels research by JP Morgan.

Target price is $27.00 Current Price is $32.40 Difference: minus $5.4 (current price is over target).
If NCM meets the Ord Minnett target it will return approximately minus 17% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

UBS rates NCM as Sell (5) -

Production guidance has been maintained at all assets except for Telfer where production is now expected to be at the lower end of guidance. Grade reconciliation in the pit appears lower than expected and is being reviewed.

The drought in NSW suggests water is a key risk to be managed at Cadia. Water recycling has lifted to 85% which de-risks the impact of the drought for now.

UBS maintains a Sell rating primarily on valuation and production momentum. The Golpu project remains delayed, awaiting government approval. Target is reduced to $30 from $31.

Target price is $30.00 Current Price is $32.40 Difference: minus $2.4 (current price is over target).
If NCM meets the UBS target it will return approximately minus 7% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

The first quarter was challenging for Qantas with revenue growth of 1.8% compared with Morgan Stanley's forecasts for the first half of 3%. Freight is expected to be negatively affected because of global trade conditions.

The airline has called out the price-sensitive domestic leisure market as a source of weakness. International remains relatively resilient, although Qantas has pointed to an adverse impact on first half profit because of the unrest in Hong Kong.

Overweight. Target is $7.00. Industry view is Cautious.

Sandfire produced -2% less copper in the Sep Q than expected but costs were -7% lower. The MOD Resources acquisition is now complete and the company is reviewing T3 feasibility, with Black Butte approvals expected by year end.

First quarter production was soft but Morgan Stanley remains positive regarding the operating performance for the rest of FY20. The top end of guidance has been trimmed slightly, to 70-72,000t of copper and 38-40,000 ounces of gold.

The downgrade is driven by recovery falling to 91% from 93% as the DeGrussa crown pillar is processed. The company expects an updated feasibility study and reserve for the T3 project in the June quarter FY20, followed by a decision to mine.

Ord Minnett rates SFR as Hold (3) -

Overall production in the September quarter was in line with Ord Minnett's estimates although the copper grade at Monty surprised to the downside. The broker continues to envisage a path to unlocking value via the successful development of the T3 copper-silver project in Botswana and the Black Butte copper mine in Montana.

Investors are unlikely to price in the full value of these assets, the broker acknowledges, until there is greater certainty on scope, timing and economics. Hold rating maintained. Target is reduced to $6.10 from $7.00.

Credit Suisse rates SGR as Downgrade to Underperform from Neutral (5) -

Credit Suisse notes positive momentum so far and updates numbers to reflect this. Earnings per share have been upgraded 7-8% over the forecast period.
